Cloud HPC Technologies

Cloud HPC provides a lot of benefits for engineers. This presentation discusses some of the underlying technologies include software containers.

Transcript

1. “Cloud HPC lets engineers use engineering software… as a service”
2. ENGINEERS REQUIRE… Software Hardware Sophisticated Software ü Build and Run Models ü Pre & Post Processing ü Interactivity ü Data Management Powerful Hardware X  Not slow desktop computers X  Server access isn’t on- demand or elastic X  Owning servers is expensive
3. A complementary approach Software Same powerful trusted engineering applications Hardware On-demand cloud infrastructure Cloud HPC Solution Familiar. Powerful. Right-sized Cost-effective.
4. Encrypted, browser based access is hassle free and secure Screen resolution is adjustable by the user GPU based graphics acceleration is available Cloud HPC looks like a desktop, only much faster
5. •  Turn-key •  No capital investment •  Pricing – project or subscription •  Collaborate with your customers and partners globally •  End-to-end support Cloud HPC Services Wish List
6. UberCloud Containers Application Layer Middleware Layer Base Layer Infrastructure Integration Container Run time
7. UberCloud Containers Application Layer Middleware Layer Base Layer Infrastructure Integration Container Run time UberCloud Provides Encrypted remote desktop Authentication Monitoring Cloud integration Software updates Secure data transfers Horizontal/Vertical scalability
8. Core feature of Linux, enabling virtualization of the OS Extremely low overhead, has small image sizes UberCloud uses containers to distribute ready-to-run bundles of engineering software, tools, and configuration to any Cloud Software Containers? What are they?
9. High Performance
10. HTTPS/VPN Access* OS Firewall OS PKI Login Disk Encryption* Dedicated Servers in High Security Data Centers * HTTPS/VPN access and Disk Encryption are optional UberCloud Security Layers We deploy on single tenant servers (not shared between customers). These servers reside in professionally managed, highly secured data centers. Data at rest can be encrypted. Disk and file level encryption are both available (optional, may degrade performance) Admin access to our servers are protected by PKI Public Key Encryption (vs passwords, which can be guessed) Our servers are protected with firewalls. Only necessary ports are turned on to reduce attacks Connection to our servers are protected by strong encryption techniques such as HTTPS and VPN
